A sturdy 6-5 Virginia Tech wing who brought efficient scoring and playoff poise
In the 2018-19 season, Ahmed Hill averaged 13.1 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 1.3 assists for Virginia Tech, while shooting 44.3% from the field and 39.1% from three—classic “plug him in and the offense hums” material. He paired size, downhill scoring, and real perimeter gravity with a reputation as a physical defender and dependable finisher, and he already showed clutch-game value in Virginia Tech’s NCAA Tournament run. The catch: he had a major injury history earlier in college after patella tendon surgery, so he was best viewed as a high-upside, battle-tested wing rather than a clean bill of health lottery ticket.
